The new species is distinguished from all congeners by having three pairs of relatively long barbels, by the number of vertebrae, dorsal- and anal-fin rays, head length, pectoral-fin spine with smooth anterior and serrated posterior margins, vomerine teeth patches in continuous band, and a lateral line visible as a series of short whitish horizontal lines.
